ALOR GAJAH, Oct 23 — The Melaka government is committed to addressing the issue of job losses and unemployment, especially among youths in the state.

Chief Minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Md Ali said the state government had taken various initiatives including organising career carnivals at the state and district levels which offered various career opportunities in various sectors for the people of Melaka, especially the youths.
